    @benoit My apologies for not responding sooner, for some reason I never saw your comments until today. I think it is great you are aiming to help people. And your explanation, and comparison, does make sense. Thank you. Merci.

      I am a ten-day newbie to Cloudron but have over twenty years experience working as a technical writer for mostly Montreal-based companies like Autodesk Media & Entertainment (compositing/editing film and tv), Moment Factory (live event multimedia) and Genetec (physical security).

      However my hobby and real passion is plain writing and getting this out in as many mediums as possible. This led me to shared hosting WordPress blogs and eventually VPS with DigitalOcean. Along the way I tried to set up and run maybe ten or more apps that are in the Cloudron store so it is a revelation to find it as it simplifies and brings together all this experimentation basically onto a single server.

      I am very excited to find Cloudron and this community and hope to contribute perhaps initially more in-line with my past experience as a technical writer: which means asking lots of questions πŸ˜‰

              I am a Physician and a Medical Informaticist.
              I am also into Medical Education, work at a University.

              What I am not is a software engineer or system administrator.
              This is exactly why Cloudron is nothing less than magic for me.

              Thanks @nebulon and @girish for such a fantastic software.

              I was on sandstorm earlier and came to cloudron very early on.

              Cloudron has empowered me to run a dozen or so apps without a fuss. Customer support (hands on by the founders) is the single greatest and top feature of cloudron.

                Bah I'm Linux SysAdmin and teached docker to devs and still while I understand and probably able to do something similar, I'm using Cloudron because of the community (support, debug, upgrade, ...) and the team maintain properly their project which save me a lot of time πŸ™‚

                    Apologies for the maybe pointed question - but as a UX Designer I'm curious about the backgrounds of Cloudron users.

                    I'm interested in knowing people's jobs/professions/what they spend most of their day doing.

                    I'm interested if people are mostly "infrastructure profession users" (sysadmins, devops), "developer/programming users", not-technical users (gross over-simplified term, no insult meant), scientists, academic, or someone like me ux designer/graphic/visual designers (somewhere in between the technical and non-technical user).

                    My reasoning for asking is to see if there are similarities between people here and UX designers I meet and work with who say "oh I can't be bothered/don't have the skills to move away from Google/Office265/Dropbox".

                    I was thinking of creating a simple survey. Would there be any objections?

                    @ei8fdb
                    Partially retired, in the sense that I passed on a business that was sucking me dry in terms of energy.
                    So mostly gainfully UNemployed !!
                    Free now to pursue my interests, which include staying abreast of all the great tech that is out there nowadays.
                    An uncommon mix of legal, finance, business management, project management, business consultant, BPR solutions, training and implementor of tech solutions : 'wannabe developer'. I'll never be a real dev, and don't need to be, but it's rewarding to build solutions.

                          I'm a software developer from Chile. I created https://chevereto.com about 14 years ago and I've some other projects, I'm mostly into development of self-hosted software. I'm also a metallurgical engineer, 35 years old.

                          I also speak Spanish and I'm looking forward to distribute my software to more users. Thanks cloudron for providing this tool for guys like us.

                              I'm the CEO of a machine learning training company. I'm just getting into self hosting (nodebb).

                              This started with me reading Farnell's 'Digital vegan' and then HN discussing a post I made on geminispace telling how Tiktok recommended me a video of my son... with the interesting twist that neither my son nor me had a Tiktok account.

                              I'm a ML practitioner (20yrs) in the field so I know how the sausage is made. But this woke me up to work harder on degoogling myself, and potentially stop using a smartphone.

                              I'll be lurking in this forum before contributing, if you don't mind.

                                    @qwinter Good find - just ordered copies of that book to read and share, been preaching these things ever since DRM on music became a thing and SaaS became a trojan horse subscription ransom.
